20% boost in 3.1 is fantastic work, Claymore.  How can I buy you a virtual beverage of your choice?  You deserve at least that and much much more.  Thx!!!

edit: 2x 280X at 900 h/s and 4x 7970 at 1780 h/s.

I'm happy :-)

are you guys using GPU_MAX_ALLOC_PERCENT 100?

I find 85 gives me most hash

Yes I am using 100 percent as suggested in readme. I will try variation of that now starting with 85 percent. Thank you for the idea. Smiley

I read here 80 is best for some people... I find my miner too unstable at 100... Does 100 consume more power than 85 or does it not make any difference?

What does GPU_MAX_ALLOC_PERCENT actually do?

Just another update:
Changing the allocation did not improve the hashrate.

2044 h/s on x3 r9 290.
681 h/s each.

Do you know if you have hynix or elpida memory?

Crucial. 4 x 2 memory - 8 gb

That means that elpida is not a problem.
My 270x with elpida runs at 330hs.
Looks like problem is just with 280x, only Asus runs great.

Marvellous, getting 1800h/s with my r9 290 cards! 29% increase!

The memclock on the cards were jumping between 100 (idle) and 1500MHz batshit crazy on 2.2 but seems a lot more stable now.

For those who wonder:

3x r9 290 gigabyte reference with elpida
8gb ram
have not manually set anything (virtual memory nor gpu alloc)
catalyst 13.12
win7 64


The only thing I really lack is temp and fan control, --auto-fan on c/sgminer is just too awesome with my rig being outside with shifting ambient temperature.

I am also having trouble with my 280x. It runs in the 360 h/s range like the poster said before me.

Here are my specs

16gb ram
i7 4770k
msi 280x


For whatever reason I cannot get this to hash at 450 yet. If anyone solves this please let me know. I am still working on it myself and if i come up with anything I will share my findings.

mines run around 350 h/s with 280x

catalyst 13.2
athlon x2 250 cpu
4gb ram
20gb virtual
windows 7 64 bit
miner 3.1

4x280x stock mem and gpu
 1400 h/s

Help Claymore


Hey just to give an update:

Tried 13.10 that MSI recommends on their website. No luck

Also tried 14.4 recommended from amd and no luck.

I wonder if its on our end or the programs end?

If anyone who has a 280x working well know of any tricks to try?

Getting
"GpuMiner k1a failed -52"
280x

GPU_MAX_ALLOC_PERCENT  100 set. Virtual memory set.
v2.2 was ok. What could cause this issue?


Make sure that you use ALL files from new version. Not just replace old EXE by new, but also don't forget about "data.bin" file.

Ok, Did some thorough comparisons on my MSI 280x's at different core speeds and 3.0 vs 3.1.



R9 280x @ 70% fans on Miner 3.0


430Khash @ 950Mhz/887Mv/47c/ = 101W
460Khash @ 1040Mhz/956Mv/50c/ = 113W
466Khash @ 1080Mhz 988Mv/51c/ = 123W


R9 280x @ 70% fans on Miner 3.1


433Khash @ 950Mhz/887Mv/46c/ = 90W
457Khash @ 1040Mhz/956Mv/49c/ = 108W
463Khash @ 1080Mhz 988Mv/50c/ = 114W

Thanks man! It is good to see comparisson!


Scratch that, I just noticed I had the powered risers molex coming from another PSU  Angry So the wattage will be actually a bit higher. Will do a accurate measuring tomorrow

I just cant make my sapphires dual x 280x to work like it should.
4x280x is hashing at 1450hs.
Tryed to run just one and result is 360-365hs.
Win 7, 8gb, drivers r 13.12, virtual mem set to 16gb.
Interesting thing is that i have same results on 1100mhz and on 950mhz gpu core clock.
How can ppl run Asus on 450+ hs?

my ASUS 280x's on default clocks hit 475h/s a piece. Not sure, I didn't make any changes.
